[Tex/LaTex] miktex download failure

miktex

I was not able to download miktex on my windows computer. I was given this error message:

An error occurred:
  source file: Libraries\MiKTeX\Core\Process\Process.cpp
  source line: 166
  message: The executed process did not succeed.
  info: fileName="C:\Users\Hector\Documents\Miktex\miktex/bin/x64\initexmf.exe", exitCode="-1073741701"

What can I do to download miktex? Better yet, what does the error mean?
